Orleans Parish Sheriff Marlin Gusman said he's reviewing the actions of the deputies to determine if any policies or procedures were violated. It was unclear how many deputies were involved in the internal investigation.

While the OPSO has just begun its investigation, the WDSU I-Team has uncovered new information about the alleged incident involving Jordan.

According to the sheriff's office's own policy, deputies are not allowed to work detail at nightclubs or bars unless they have permission from the OPSO.

The I-Team obtained the OPSO's guidelines regarding policies and procedures for off duty detail. Employees are strictly prohibited from working off duty detail at alcohol beverage outlets without permission from the sheriff or his designee.

Alcohol beverage outlets include bars, lounges and other establishments whose primary source of revenue is derived from the sale of alcoholic beverages to be consumed on the premises,

A representative for the sheriff's office told the WDSU I-Team that is why the deputies are being investigated.

Two years ago, WDSU looked at how the OPSO's number 2 man was serving as a security consultant for the New Orleans Jazz Fest and another event in Baton Rouge, even though the OPSO's policy forbids it. The sheriff's office told WDSU that the man was not working a detail, he just was serving as a security liaison.

The OPSO did not give a time frame for when the internal investigation would end on the deputies involved in the alleged Jordan incident.

Attorneys for Jordan issued a statement Wednesday saying the allegations in the police report are "ridiculous." Attorneys Brian Capitelli and Ralph Capitelli said the Saints football player did not "cause a disturbance of any kind."

"Today, the local media obtained a copy of a police report pursuant to a public records request filed by an individual who made certain allegations against Cam Jordan," his attorneys said in the statement.

Jordan's attorneys said the complaining individual, the woman's boyfriend, is "apparently jealous" and followed Jordan into the men's bathroom.

"Mr. Jordan did not commit any criminal offense whatsoever and continues to remain cooperative with any law enforcement inquiry into this situation. As attorneys for Cam Jordan our investigation reveals that there was no criminal misconduct committed by Mr. Jordan," the attorneys said in the statement.
